Hello, it's ball and king with the ball and king team.

I'm just trying to make this into a show.

I think, could we put it out to someone?

Is there some little local radio station?

Alan Patrick's size station.

Brilliant.

I was reading about how Johnny Depp suggested that a bad review might have been responsible for

the loan range as bad takings at the box office in America this week.

And I was wondering James, can a bad review take down a film?

And, you know, which, you know, really, really bad films are so bad, they're quite good.

I think a bad review can hurt a film.

I don't think it can take it down on its own.

I think part of the loan range is problems that it's been having in the States.

It remains to be seen how it's going to do over here is more the property where the people

are actually really have an appetite for a western and a sort of wacky comedy western.

I think where critics really help is when it's sort of smaller movies, to be honest,

where we champion things like King's Speech or something or Slumdog Millionaire

and they go through festivals and they get lots of word of mouth praise.

That's where critics really help.
